L.v. Bonsai Society Schedules Slide Show

The Bonsai Society of the Lehigh Valley is sponsoring a slide lecture on flowering and fruiting bonsai at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the UGI Auditorium, 2121 City Line Road, Bethlehem.

Chase Rosade of the Rosade Bonsai Studio, New Hope, Bucks County, will lecture.

Rosade became interested in the art of bonsai while visiting Japan in 1963. When he returned to the United States, he began classes and lectures on the subject, and eventually opened the studio in Bucks County, which includes a display garden and retail nursery.

In addition to teaching and lecturing, Rosade has been judge at most major bonsai shows in the United States, and is a major exhibitor at the Philadelphia Flower and Garden Show.
